How To Tame Your Pet TURTLE! 

Trained my turtle to not bark at strangers. Beat that. Edit: I taught my turtle to make viral comments, thanks on 1.5k likes 🤠

Sheldon, “la tortuga la tortuga”

Why am I even watching this I don’t even have a turtle 🤦‍♀️😂

my friend told me if u stare at it for an hour straight it’ll recognize you, it worked, idk if it’ll work but u guys can try it

My turtle is a box turtle when I pick him up he goes in his shell and waves his arms around like he’s swimming and tries to get out it’s so cute

“I tried teaching my turtle Spanish” *i- maybe I should try teaching mine Russian*

I found a baby red-eared slider (I think it just hatched when I found it) at my pond so I took it in so that nothing would eat it. It warmed up to me pretty quickly and now (it has been about 2 weeks) it swims up to me and touches his nose to my finger and it is adorable.

I trained my turtle to swim 🐢 now he is an professional swimmer

Why am I watching this? Cuz my turtle bit me today and they rarely bite I’m scared he will continue biting me He is very active and strong But he’s tiny

instructions aren't clear my snapping turtle bit my hand off while I tried to hand feed it

“ I’m also teaching Sheldon how to speak Spanish “ 😂😂👌🏼

My red eared slider is extremely photogenic. I got her within the last year but she is about 8 years old. She still shys away with sudden movements. But if she is able to watch my hands from the get go she is fine. I agree with what you said about trust and hand feeding. It has worked great for me.

Oh I tamed mine accidentally😂😂 Didn't why my turtle loved us so much😂😂

This really helped! My turtle now follows me whenever he sees me by his tank. Thank you for the tips!!

Great tips for sure! There are a couple things to keep in mind: 1. Hand feeding may make the turtle associate your hand/presence with food, and thus they will grow a heavy dependence on being hand fed. My turtle will sometimes ignore food in the tank unless I touch it or have him follow with my finger. Now, I just drop the food and let him find it to make sure his natural hunting instincts develop. 2. Feeding a hatchling a snack for doing certain behavior may cause over feeding if done too often. Hatching turtles will always act hungry and welcome food whenever given, so balancing their meal portion with a snack portion is very important. Remember, a hatchling turtle should be fed the volume of food that fits the volume of their head daily, no more! Their shell may start pyramiding and gain weight too quickly. Hope this helps anyone!

My turtle will follow me across the room when im around him, ive only had him for around 4 months hes so little. He came to me loving and tamed

Omg thank youuuu My turtle is just terrified of my very existence So back to the drawing board we go hopefully this helps and he will like me 😊🐢🐢

Me sleeps My box at 3am: turtle crack a lack I am on back so my human will come and flip me on the grass

EXCELLENT job, Carson! Your tactics have the turtle's needs in mind, instead of your own. I REALLY like that! Great job. Sheldon will be with you for a long time. WELL DONE!

"Oh snap, i was just handled.. but hey, i got food from it!!" The best fricking line i've ever heard!

Trained my turtle how to ride a tech deck now

Cool vid man. Sheldon is so cute😂 i have too Turtles but there both like 7 years old now so too late to start now 🤣. Again great vid and love Sheldon

My turtle, Fry and your turtle, Sheldon did the exact same things in the process. This video helped me take my turtle. Thank you SOOOOO much!

Thank god this popped up in my recommendations. I have 3 turtles. I’ve had one of them for 6 years and she’s super sweet and social but the other two I got them more recently and one of them is super panicky and the other is really aggressive. I’m still trying to tame them but this is really helpful tysm

Hey Carson watched this video 1 month ago for my turtle now I’m watching this again and my turtle did get tamed thanks to you! Thanks for the tips, and for making me patient

Your videos are awesome! Very informative and straight to the point👍🏾

You talking to Sheldon in spanish is the cutest thing

Wow, amazing to see this. Great video :) Turtles are such amazing pets.

Tutle: dont touch me you fool Me:ill touch you everday in mah heart Turtle: what a jerk i want my mom Me: ill get your heart and your brain Turlte:dont you dare or ill call my friends crab Me:fine

Thank you because I let mine walk around the other day and when I picked him up he hissed, but that was the first time I let him walk around in a while. I love knowing more about my little guy so any further videos with helpful information will be well used, at least by me! Thank you! (Btw my turtle is so sweet and I have had him like 8 months now. He’s getting bigger, and he does eat from my hand by I haven’t taught him it’s okay with being handled yet, I need to now, also where did you get your turtle tub from PELASE??)

Yea im getting a turtle today im completely new to this so I need some info thanks for making this video I learned a lot

I just discovered your channel but I have to say this really melted my heart!!

Just got a new baby turtle! he's quite small and I named him Art. I'm going to try using your methods to tame him and hopefully we'll be besties for life

When I don't have food in my hand my turtle tries to bite me? Idk what to do.

You posted thus on my birthday also you have a new subscriber😁

my sisters turtle has been left alone in her room for about a year everytime i go in to feed him i can tell he’s so scared and extremely depressed i don’t want him to be neglected anymore and this helped me understand how to keep him happier

" la Tortuga " omg haha

My turtle slept in my bed

My turtles are only friendly because when I was little I brought them out of their tanks and play video games while they climbed on me and also food, mainly food. I am their food-giver, that’s probably the main reason they trust me.

All I do is put lots of fast growing plants in it’s indoor pond to provide clean water all the time And I feed a variety of foods, and that’s it my turtle appreciates me , and knows I won’t hurt it.

Currently a momma to two boys (I think) lol they are red eared sliders Florencio & Lorenzo 🐢💚 I adopted them from a family who had bought them for their 4 year old 🙄 I’ve only had them a week now and they’re are finally not completely terrified of me 🥺 we’ll see how the next few weeks play out 🙏🏼🥰

So uh 😐 my turtle 🐢 is weird (I think it’s because I named him Greg) He swims around all day and I usually feed him out of my hand but all of a sudden he’s to good to eat food out of my hand now. Also you might not believe this but he also does yoga 🧘‍♀️ on his rock and it’s hilarious 😂

Great video man seriously great 👌

I'm thinking of getting the turtle but I'm not sure how much things cost so I'm going to have to do some research but this is good what I just watched so thank you

I have a turtle myself that has lived at least 6 months with me and he still is scared of me but I am going to try this out and hope that it works 🤪👍🐢

Wow thanks for these tips!

My turtle for used to me after 1 day I feed him with my hand and let him like nothing

I just got my turtle and he is not eating. Turtle: because I am scaredy-cats. Me: BOI if you don’t come to me I am gong to....

Subscribed cause it was so f*** funny la tortuga la tortuga ..Good one!!!

You’re hilarious man hahaha great vid

My yellow slider doesn’t really eat that much cause he’s to sad that he lost his fren 🥺🥺 she was a girl

My turtle ran away, when he’s on my hand. Does this behavior count as bad or he’s too friendly?

Carson makes a turtle back flip him “it’s really easy this is how you do it” 😂😂

Ahh, I'm happy I found this channel. I hand feed my yellow belly slider, she comes to her name lol love thisss

Quick question: When you feed him with your hands, does he ever accidentally bite your fingers while grabbing the food pellet ? I'm curious coz I just got a baby red eared slider.......

How do you keep the water so clear & clean

Love that intro plus points for song Lol

BANGER VIDEO LIKE ALWAYS

Aren’t you scared he will bite you when you hand feed ?! I want to try but get too scared with my RES

We hab the same turtle name but my spelling is Shelldon

Dude u are great teacher 👍

yo that intro video is pretty dope and i also have a slider turtle mines red eared and 9 weeks old

This helped me so much thanks

Before this video, I earned my turtle’s trust. Sometimes, his head goes into his shell. Then, I gently look at him, and my turtle’s face goes out and we watch each other. That’s a recommendation to do first. Maybe try another way.

love the intro!

Awesome video, thank you

I literally trained my turtle to be scared of me whenever I enter the room 🙃

"Don't touch me" is the best part:-) Mine was very unsocial, now we're friends:-) Thanks for the video!

I’m so going to try this. I have a red bellied cooter and I bought a nice tank for him. I naturally walk up to him and wave at him and walk away. I try to feed him but he doesn’t seem to want to eat. Which makes me nervous so maybe I should start tying to hand feed him and see what he does

Turtle wisperer! Spanish Turtle. Best Video. I started waving at my turtle half way thou

and was with your tips..... thanks

Awe he is a cutie. Ill have to try these with my turtle!

This video is a terappin classic🔥

This helped thanks!

That was pretty cool 👍🏽

Yeah I really liked this video thanks for sharing!

I have a red eared slider that's super tame, it was a classroom turtle for a few years and went to a house during covid, and it ended up in my care. The turt is so friendly, I can clean the tank and she nuzzles and uses my arm as a ledge. I have a yellow bellied slider that we rescued from one of the most horribly kept aquariums I've ever seen, and the difference between how trusting this turtle is with people compared to my red eared is insane. Warming up quickly, but so skittish and scared. But I can definitely second hand feeding your turtle. It definitely is one of the best ways to form trust with your turt!

This is so cute 😍

You always have fire intros

Haha 😂 I love your videos

This will be so helpful for my yellow belly slider ms turtle

Aww ,very cute!!!!

This worked. Very good

That turtle setup looks good

I used to have red ear sliders when I was a kid I used to be very hands on with them, I let them walk around outside of the tank all day lots of the time.Eventually they started hating being inside the tank.And it was a very large tank.

'la tortuga" 😂😂 awesome turtle 🐢 👍👏❤️

Damn that intro tho!! H-town holdin it down!

My turtle never had that problem because he knows that I’m gonna give him food

This was very helpful

Thanks to you my turtle loves me

I ❤️ you’re vids

Thank you for this video!😊 my 6yo got a turtle for her birthday and well yea she's turned into MY turtle cause I'm the one who cares for her and feeds her. I've been doing alot of these things already but I've been feeding her in a separate bowl. She's already pretty tame to me from holding her and feeding her but I'm going to start hand feeding her and see how she does with that ❤

This is working, a bit thanks ☺️👍🏼

It works thank you😁

Very nice. Thank you

O that’s cool to know my son be working on his a lot when he first got it couple days ago he is so scared and still is and he is happy he found this video to help him

This video was helpful homie

I have two red eared sliders now, Eggy and Shelly. I got Shelly in May and Eggy 5 days ago. Shelly is 2 years old and he has my complete trust, but Eggy is a baby and gets scared when I go near him. I try to feed him but he doesn’t eat I’m front of me. He eats when I’m not near him. I’ll try the tips that you shared. Great video tho Sheldon will learn Spanish 😂

Thanks young man

Thanks or sharing... your tips really work on my baby turtle :)
